Reflecting upon our eternal voyage, the following verse came through:
Let Go and Let Be
Vast is the sea of life we sail upon.
Our voyage is eternal.
Many things have we to see and learn.
Many people are we to meet along the way.
Some will want to be the Captain.
It’s okay—let go and let be.
Become the master of your own helm.
Is there harmony in mutiny?
Is there serenity in siege?
Let go and let be.
All is well.

Great message, RJ. Surrendering and not trying to control everything sure makes our journey a lot more enjoyable and tranquil! Thanks

HOW VERY TRUE, Michael. Having lived the dream for the past 82 years with 40 of those years dedicated to Eckankar, the Path of Spiritual Freedom, I find the best way for me has been to always take The Easy Way, which is to say after I’ve done the very best I could do, the next step for me is to Let Go–Let Be–Let God and trust in Holy Spirit knowing all that is truly needed is in its rightful place at the right time. Always deeply grateful for you and Pichaya’s intuitive and perceptive guidance. More to come from old RJ.

Thank you, RJ, for the beautiful verse that captures the essence of life’s journey. The call to “let go and let be” is a gentle yet powerful reminder to trust the process, to release control, and to embrace the flow of life. In a world where we often feel the need to steer every moment, this verse invites us to find peace in surrender and harmony in allowing things to unfold naturally. Thank you for sharing this profound reflection—it’s a soothing balm for the soul.
